The butcher was very experienced, and dealt with the pigs efficiently. When the meat was portioned out, everyone queued up to get their share. The brigade leader, Wang Mingtao, stood by to supervise while Wang Qingshan kept the records.
The Gu family also got some meat, but not much.
Gu Conghua was a landlord and Wen Ruyu was the daughter of a capitalist. They usually had no part in such events. Even the old men and women in the cowshed had not come.
Although they reared the pigs, chickens and ducks, they had no share in the meat.
But Gu Conghua was a doctor and had treated everyone in the surrounding villages, so he was treated a little better. Wang Mingtao made the decision to give Gu Conghua a share, but Gu Conghua did not ask for much – only half a portion.
He only took half a share at the annual meat distribution, and even then, his sons or grandchildren came to collect it. He never involved himself.
Now that Zhang Xiaohui and Gu Yunshen were divorced, Gu Yunshen was the only adult in the Gu Family, so he got a kilogram of meat. Gu Conghua got half a share and as a child, Gu Qingyao also got half a kilogram. That made a total of two kilograms of meat.
As for Gu Jinlin and the others, their food accounts were not here, so they did not get a share.
Gu Qingyao carried her family’s two kilograms of meat, while Chen Xiaocao carried her family’s single kilogram of meat. She was flushed with excitement and looked especially adorable.
The Zhang family were also present. Their family was larger, so they got more meat, including Zhang Xiaohui and Gu Ruoqing’s share. Zhang Xiaohui and Old Madam Zhang snorted smugly when they saw Gu Qingyao, but Gu Qingyao did not say anything.
I’m in a good mood these days. I won’t quibble with you now.
But seeing how smug you are, I think it would be unkind if I don’t make some trouble for you!
Gu Qingyao looked at Zhang Xiaohui. Her innocent smile made Zhang Xiaohui break out in goosebumps.
“Damn girl, what are you looking at?”
Gu Qingyao did not reply.
Zhang Xiaohui looked disdainful. “What’s the matter? Are you eyeing our family’s meat? Ah! Look at how little you have, barely enough for your family to sink their teeth into. Let me tell you, you are no relative of mine now. Stop staring. You won’t get a share.

Gu Qingyao’s mouth twitched. “Aunt, why do I have this feeling that you’ve gotten much fatter?”
Zhang Xiaohui had recently become notorious within the brigade. Many people had looked at her when she arrived, and now that Gu Qingyao said that, everyone paid even closer attention. They carefully examined her to see if she had indeed gained weight.
Zhang Xiaohui’s heart leapt in fear. She instinctively hid behind Old Madam Zhang. “What nonsense is that? It’s cold, so I wore a few more layers. What are you trying to say?”
Gu Qingyao laughed. “Aunt, why are you getting so agitated? I only wanted to say that your life has improved since you went back to live with the Zhang family. Look at how plump you’ve grown. It’s your good fortune! Why are you so angry?”
Zhang Xiaohui: “…”
In these times, being fat was a blessing, and it was a compliment!
Gu Qingyao snorted frostily when she saw that Zhang Xiaohui could not find a retort. She grabbed her things and left.
Did they think things were over just because they were divorced.?
Ahah! Zhang Xiaohui, you just wait. I’ll show you what it feels like to live in terror!
Gu Jinlin trembled to see the smile on Gu Qingyao’s lips. “Younger sister, what are you thinking about?”
Gu Qingyao turned to look at her third elder brother. She raised her brows and laughed!
“Third Elder Brother, tell me, if someone is bullied, should they seek revenge?”
